For 300 years, The Pilgrim’s Progress has remained perhaps the best-loved and most read of devotional fictions. In plain yet powerful and moving language, Bunyan tells the story of Christian’s struggle to attain salvation and the Gates of Heaven. He must pass through the Slough of Despond, ward off the temptations of Vanity Fair, and fight the monstrous Apollyon. In Part II, his wife and children follow the same path, helped and protected by Great-heart, until for them, too, ‘the trumpets sound on the other side.’
About the Author:
John Bunyan was an English Christian writer and preacher who is best known for his allegorical novel The Pilgrim’s Progress, published in 1678. Bunyan’s faith was profoundly influenced by two books owned by his wife: Arthur Dent’s Plain Man’s Pathway to Heaven and Lewis Bayly’s Practice of Piety, and he turned to preaching following the death of his guide and mentor, John Gifford.
